Blade Runner

I played this game when it first game out, many years ago. And replaying it on GOG is such a treat. The graphics are rough of course, and if you did not play the original that may be a struggle to overcome. But if you enjoy older games, this one is golden. Obviously based on the original movie, and set parallel to the timeline of that classic, this game revisits many of the locations of the film, while you try to solve a seperate crime as a new Blade Runner. Multiple voice actors reprise their roles from the original film, and the setting, tone, lighting, etc. all create an ambience and atmosphere that is rarely seen in mid-90s games. I loved this one. I hope you do as well.

WoW! One of my favorite games of all time is back! Blade Runner is a fantastic adventure/action/investigation game that has great replayability with multiple endings. This is one game that should be in everyone's collection especially fans of the movie, look out for Deckard from the movies making a cameo too.

Blade Runner is not perfect, and in a world of Lucas Arts and Sierra adventure games, one can get suspicious about it. However, the beautiful and distopian world where it takes place, the magnificent story that leaves you asking questions about morals, actions and life in general, and the very simple to use controls, all make for a great experience. Blade Runner the game, just like the movie, is a sublime experience. While not being perfect, don't let that experience get lost in time... like tears in rain. Time to play.

Bladerunner is a classic adventure with some revolutionary concepts when it was published. The 3D voxel graphics and non-linear storytelling with multiple endings was a real gem. On today's screens the graphics did not age well, so if you can´t stand pixelized graphics, then keep your hands off and wait for a sequel or remake. Better remake than remaster. If you are ok with retro graphics and (at least on my computer only 4:3 resolution), if you like the story and franchise, then get it. It makes a great appetizer for Cyberpunk 2077. It has an intriguing story and nice music as well as the atmospheric settings you may remember from the first movie with Harrison Ford. Unfortunately no soundtrack. I can still recommend it! I got it now with 10% discount, because I just wanted to play it again badly and I had no more discs. Also the old version would probably not run on a modern machine without extra work. It runs well on my 64bit Windows 10, so don't worry about system compatibility. GOG got it right! Due to the aged graphics and no widescreen I deduct 1 star. The story is 5 stars for sure.

I thought this game was lost to time, never to make it to GOG, but here it is, much to my delight. The visuals are stunning, the voice acting is really good, and there's a combat element built in to the gameplay. This is a truly great game, and I look forward to fully catching up with it.
